The Signal of date February 11,

The Signal has always treated Mr.

on several occasions), but its it 'wily
just to say that In return he it making

yecariou which called forth The Sig-

Mt'. Lewin -following his cheeky plat)
of advertising himsi if on all occasions)
had made a spread-eagle ageee•h on a
question with which he was about as
competent to Ileal its a fish is to shell

gentlemanly way let Mr. Lew•ia down

operate the road and pay the country

A COMPARISON.
• la three years the Whitney Gov-
ernment Increased the Provincial
expenditures 46 per cent. If the
Laurier Government had increased
the Dominion expenditures at the
same rate for every three years
since 1896, the annual expenditure
would now be over $16o,000,000
And it must be remembered, too,
that the Province of Ontario has
not been developing in anything
like the same proportion as the
Dominion as a whole.

A SUIT AND SKIRT MANUFACTURER'S STOCK OF
Dress Materials Offered You at
�••,}atm_.• ----- r
Less than Wholesale Prices.
\ HER IS THE REASON FOR THE SELLING.
About three weeks ago a large manufacturer of skirts and suits found himself unable to
continue business and made an assigment. His stock of dress goods, silks and suitings was
taken by a creditor and cleared out at a fraction of what it cost him. It was a good stock
bought from the best houses in the trade, and consisted of materials suitable for suits, skirts
and underskirts. It was ractically all new within the last few months. Three firms
bought it from the creditor who handled it, one in Vancouver, one in Hamilton, and our-
selves. It was our good fort e to have first chance at it. We had a free hand, the choice
of everything, and took what we wanted at practically our own price before any other buyer
even saw it.
THAT IS THE REASON WE CAN AND ARE GOING TO SELL FOR ONE WEEK
COMMENCING SATURDAY. 0CT0BER 24th, THE CHEAPEST DRESS GOODS
THAT EVER WENT OVER R COUNTERS. Every yard is good, desirable,
fashionable materials in popular shades, Most of this big purchase consists of plain Venet-
ians, Panama and satin cloths. This last week of October is going to be the most remarkable
week ordress goods selling we have any record of. Every yard will be sold for less than it
can be bought in any wholesale house in the land. This is unquestionably the greatest money-
saving Dress Goods opportunity we ever offered to our customers. You cannot afford to
miss it. Here are some of the good things waiting for you Saturday morning.
